Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium head cauliflower (cut into bite-sized florets)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3/4 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 tbsp melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This prevents the cauliflower from sticking and makes cleanup much easier later on.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, water, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth. The batter should be thick enough to coat the cauliflower without being overly runny.
  3. Add the cauliflower florets into the bowl with the batter. Toss gently until every piece is evenly coated. Lift each floret out, shaking off any excess batter, and place them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure there is space between the pieces so they can crisp up properly.
  4. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Halfway through, you can flip the florets to ensure they brown evenly on all sides. The cauliflower should be tender but the batter should be firm and starting to turn golden.
  5. While the cauliflower is baking, whisk together the buffalo sauce and melted butter in a small bowl. Once the 20 minutes are up, remove the cauliflower from the oven. Brush the sauce over each floret or gently toss them in a bowl with the sauce until fully coated.
  6. Return the sauced cauliflower to the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10 minutes. This allows the sauce to bake into the batter and gives the bites that perfect, slightly charred finish. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
